This is very cool!
But why do we need this? An agent can just have a local DB using SQLite for example.
Two reasons this could make sense:
1. With this, agents can actually deploy a full backend with their credentials [^1].
2. If your agent ever wants to add auth, or real-time presence, or file uploads, or streams, they'll be able to do that too
[^1] Alas we don't offer static site hosting, so to push the website you would need to use something like a vercel cli.
Are neither of those things possible with a sqlite backend??? Why would one ever reach for this bespoke database tech
